Question

A company rents out 19 food booths and 20 game booths at the county fair. The fee for a food booth is $200 plus $7 per day. The fee for a game booth is $65 plus $5 per day. The fair lasts for d days, and all the booths are rented for the entire time. Enter a simplified expression for the amount, in dollars, that the company is paid.

Answer 1

$2715

Explanation:

Given that 15 food booths were rented out for ‘d’ days at $100 plus $5 per day. On the food booths only, the company will earn 15($100+$5d) = $1500 + $75d Given that 20 game booths were rented out for ‘d’ days at $50 plus $7 per day. On the game booths only, the company will earn 20($50 + $7d) = $1000 + $140d

The total amount that the company is paid is therefore, $1500 + $75d + $1000 + $140d = $2500 + $215d
